Planning Approval

Hi Guys

It has been a little while since my last post but we have had a few setbacks that needed to be sorted before we could move on. These now thankfully have been put behind us.

We recieved planning approval on the 19th November and can now focus fully on opening. With a build time of 4-6 weeks we are aiming to be open early in the New Year.

As you are aware we are currently offering 1/2 price membership's for anyone who joins on the lead up to opening. As we have laid the foundations for the gym getting up and running I am going to slightly change this offer!!!

Anyone who JOINS on the run up to opening will get the 1/2 price membership. As a bonus for being the building blocks with which we aim to build this club we will GUARANTEE the £25/month for the lifetime of your membership with us!!!

Yours Truly

EXTENSION OF THE SPECIAL OFFER!!!!!

Hi Everyone,

We have extended the special offer as the opening has been delayed until december now. If you are interested in taking up the offer please fill in the joining paperwork and send it to me ASAP along with the £25 pound reservation fee so I can get the starter packs sorted.

Please either post the forms or scan, sign and email them to me. If you would like to enclose a cheque thats fine or transfer the money via internet transfer. If you want the latter please let me know and I will send you the details.

(All monies will be guarenteed and returned should the gym not open)

Kind regards

Gareth
